DANE, Editor. “Everybody’s Doing It.” The current issue of Everybody’s magazine contains the announcement of a series of articles by Thomas W. d gressivism, Lawson on why the cost of living is high and how it may be reduced. Mr. Lawson says that he proposes to show that the gambling feature of the stock exchanges is the cause of the absorbtion of the annual surplus of the country. His article “The Remedy”’ will be in the nature of a sequel to “Frenzied . Finance.” “Pee Vee” Collins. P. V. Collins, champion of the Bull Moose, has been named by the com- mittee of fifty to make the race for] governor of Minnesota on the third party ticket. It does not even de- serve the name of “Progressive” for the backers of the ticket have by this one act tried to defeat one of the fundamental principles of pro- that is, that the people have the right to make their own bal- lot. Collins is to run for governor, but whose choice is he? Not that of a portion of the people of the state for he was not brought before them in the primary; not that of a party for the committee of fifty was named by one man; not even of the committee itself, for his was not the first name proposed and his selection was not unanimous, One of the fundamental principles of progressivism is that the people have the right to make their own ballot and that the primary is the proper machinery, Yet a few men in this state, not content to follow the will of the people who nominated Eb- erhart out of a large field, are back- ing a man on whom the people have never expressed themselves. And yet they claim to be Progressive! Governor Eberhart was right when he said that the action of the com- mittee in naming a candidate after it had taken part in the primary was the “most high handed form of dic- tatorship ever exercised in the state and a direct violation of the most important principle of progressiv- ism.” The action of the committee has sounded the death knell of the new party in Minnesota. It has al- ready cost their chief many votes and will cost more. The Pioneer stands for true pro- gressivism and will not back the ef- forts of a few discontented men to get a public office for one of their number with maybe apointments for themselves later. In the primary, the Pioneer backed men it considers real progressives; in the spring, it was an advocate of the direct primary. The primary did not nominate the man the Pioneer hoped would be named, but the Pioneer will stay true to real progressive principles and in so do- ing will support the nominee, A. O. Eberhart.

King Christian X., who succeeded his father on the Danish throne last year, was born in Copenhagen, Sep- tember 26, 1870. He received both a military and scholastic education. In his youth he served as a private in the Danish army, and some years ago attained a major’s rank and later the grade of general through merited promotion, as was often attested by the character of papers he read be- fore the Society of War Science. The gree when he was eighteen years old, and shortly before he came to the throne he added an honorary D. Sc., his thesis for it being a discussion of political science. King Christian was married in 1898 to Princess Al- exandrine of Mecklenburg-Schwerin. The royal couple have two sons, the eldest of whom, Crown Prince Fred- future king took his university de-| erick, is now in his fourteenth year.
